Strange Christmas Gifts

Leading off our strange gifts selection is the chic canes of death design from cafepress.com. The design is available as clothing, mugs, buttons, cups, and many other ways which you can use to express your bah, humbug spirit to your victims (er, gift recipients). Other uses include labeling fruitcake as a poisonous substance.
Did I mention that you can get it on a thong too? Go ahead, your gff will love you for it!
For the person who has everything, I recommend a Christmas tree ornament made from reindeer droppings from Miller Park Zoo in Bloomington, Ill. Workers made the ornaments from dried reindeer droppings coated with several coats of paint. The ornaments sell for $5 and come with a certificate of authenticity.
According to Yahoo, zoo marketing director Susie Ohley has named the products “magical reindeer gem ornaments,” and each comes with a label of authenticity.
Some folks are surprised at the size of the “gems,” which are only about as big as marbles. “Reindeer are so big,” zoo maintenance worker Sheldon Williams said. But the droppings are “just a big pile of small.”
Magical indeed….





I think everyone at one time or another has received gifts like this that really make you even wonder about the person giving you the gift.
